Signs You're Smart for Your Age...or Not?

Did you know that things like being more aware of how you spend your time, passion for learning, and generally having more focus could be signs of meta intelligence?

Do you want to watch this video to find out more about these signs?

Let’s just say when I was ten I knew way dangerously more than I should.

Edit: [God that is a lot of likes.]

These videos are really helpful in learning more about ourselves.

In my opinion, no one is really born intelligent or stays the same throughout life. Life lessons and experiences play a huge role in shaping how you are. I personally had to learn to be more productive and focused the tough way and put effort to grow intellectually, so if you feel dumb after watching this, just know that there is always room to grow <3

I do not feel comfortable being called this, but a lot of the criteria fits me. I’m currently learning the balance between feelings and logic. There has to be a balance. You can’t let your emotions get the best of you, but you can’t ignore it. My primary motivation for getting up is learning. However, am I above the average person? Here’s my struggle on why that was never the case: I cannot learn anything I’m not interested in. It made me flunk a lot of my classes in High School and Grade School. Once I got into college, everything is fascinating. I was lucky enough to go to a college that enjoys teaching. However, I am now deep ass in debt from a college that no longer exists. My built up trauma and inability to adequately express emotions in the past has stunted my growth in the sense of maturity. My interests are always all over the place, and to which most call childish. Though it is true that I love change and exploration. Yes, routine would be ideal. I cannot deal with it though. Spontaneity and adaptation is how I thrive. Think outside the box.

Yeesh, that’s a paragraph. My point is: as much as I’d love to fit in this, I have to admit this is sadly not me

I don't really perceive myself as smart for my age. I usually find myself as more of just a person who knows how to
logically control my work ethic and get things done fast, but I do find myself being called smart by others just because I (for example) finished a school assignment fast.

I'm proud to be part of your community and learning more about physical and mental health is something people should really care about! I wish everyone would see how important it is. Humanity could be healthier if everyone knew about such thing

[khalilahd.]

I love this! People have always said that I was wise beyond my years. Nice to see the science behind it 💜

[nelloed]

You can step back and observe people and situations, instead of being emotionally/mentally wrapped up in everything all the time.
